Quarterly Transaction File

Data Set Name:                   WS.ES202.QTR.TRANS

Service Center DSN:           YBUssX.A145.QTR.TRANS, ('ss' = State FIPS code)

Type of File:                         VSAM indexed

File Layout:                          ES2QTRN

CICS ID:                               ES2QTRN (standard); EssQTRN (Service Center; ss=State)

The Quarterly Transaction File contains records generated by update actions to the quarterly data of the Micro File.  The record of this file contains before-change and after-change values for all quarterly data elements of a specific quarter from the Micro File record, along with a record key showing the SESA ID, date and time of change, transaction type code (add, change, delete), the year and quarter of the data in question, and a user or program ID causing the change.  Changes to the administrative data are found in the Administrative Transaction File, described earlier.  Micro Auxiliary File changes go to the MOA Transaction File.

Records added to, and deleted from, the Micro File will "double up" quarters, so as to cut the number of Quarterly Transaction records in half.  The two oldest quarters' data are sent to the first QTRN record, the two next-oldest quarters go to the second record, the two latest prior quarters are sent to the third record, and the current and future quarters appear in the fourth record.  For instance, if current quarter is 2006/3, and a new record is added to the Micro File, the four added Quarterly Transaction records would show:  first record with quarter 05/1 in before-change, 05/2 in after-change area; second record with quarter 05/3 in before-change, 05/4 in after-change area; third record with 06/1 in before-change, 06/2 in after-change area;  and fourth record with 06/3 in before-change area and 06/4 in the after-change area.  Changes to a quarter's data will have the before-change and after-change data both representing the indicated year/quarter, and changed fields can be deduced by comparing the before-change and after-change field values.

Batch jobs writing records to this file include the estimation jobs (001D, 001Q, 001S, 002D, 002F, and 242D, to note estimated accounts), 005D, which selectively deletes records from both transaction files older than a particular date (this is also performed automatically in Job 001Q for transactions over a year old), and Job 013D (post-refiling new code updates from EARS refiling).  Several CICS transactions can also write records to this file.  These include ES2C (on-line Micro File update), ES2D (macro inquiry/editing review), ES2E (micro edit review and maintenance), ES2R (MWR data entry), ES2V (multiple worksite addition or change), and ES2X (on-line multi-worksite change of ownership).

​Reading the three transaction files is limited.  An audit trail report can be produced in Job 016D for a specific transaction date range.  On-line review of the transactions is also available using the ES2P screens.  A Micro or Micro Auxiliary record (or the changed portion thereof) may also be restored from this screen, if it was accidentally deleted or radically altered.  Finally, if desired, the Administrative, Micro-Auxiliary, and Quarterly Transaction Files may be used to update State-specific source files through a State-developed job that could be named ES2J006D.​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​​
